What’s the Best Medication for Vaginal Yeast Infection?

If you’re suffering from a vaginal yeast infection you’re surely desperate to find a quick solution to your problem. If you’re looking for the right medication for vaginal yeast infection, you’re in the right place. In this article I’ll explain what kind of medication is the most effective and discuss a few, easily available options you can choose from.

The best treatment option for you are 100% natural BoriCap Boric Acid Suppositories, they’re very effective even against Candida strains immune to conventional treatments and they provide a lasting effect.

Although antifungal medication is generally safe, I’ll also look at possible side effects to help you make the best decision for yourself.

How to Choose the Right Medication for Vaginal Yeast Infection?

The most important rule when choosing treatment for a vaginal yeast infectionis that is should include at least 7 doses to make sure it will clear the infection completely. So although your symptoms may disappear the day after you used the first dose, make sure you continue using it for 7 days to kill all remaining Candida cells so they won’t start another infection in a matter of days or weeks.

Another important thing to remember is that using only topical antifungal creams will not help you get rid of a yeast infection. You have to use intravaginal cream or suppositories to treat your infection because that’s where the problem started.

Let’s look at the best options you can choose from:

Monistat 7 Vaginal Antifungal Cream with Disposable Applicators

Monistat7Vaginal Cream contains seven applicators with vaginal antifungal cream and an external cream to relieve discomfort caused by itching and irritation on the skin of the vulva. Both creams have got 2% of Miconazole Nitrate, a very effective antifungal compound.

How to use it?

Insert one applicator into your vagina before going to bed, throw away the applicator after use. Apply a bit of topical cream on your vulva with clean fingers. Follow the treatment for 7 days.

Side Effects?

Mild vaginal burning and itching and irritation

May damage condoms and diaphragms

If you want to avoid taking medication, why not try a natural treatment. Boric acid capsules are very effective. In my article about using boric acid for vaginal yeast infections, I discuss different studies that show that Boric Acid is equally effective as conventional antifungal treatments for vaginal yeast infections.

As it’s different to conventional medication for vaginal yeast infections,it’s recommended to insert one suppository overnight every 48 hours over the course of 7 days. So you’ll end up using 3 suppositories, which should be more than enough to treat a vaginal yeast infection. When you finish treatment, you can still use one suppository a week as a preventative measure.

Side effects?

Boric acid is considered a safe alternative to other antifungal medication, but you may experience vaginal burning sensation, water discharge during treatment, and vaginal redness.

Tea Tree Therapy Vaginal Suppositories

Insert one suppository overnight for 6 consecutive days and don’t forget to use a pantyliner.

Side effects?

Tea tree oil can cause an allergic reaction. Straight after inserting the suppository you may feel a burning sensation, if it doesn’t go away within a few minutes or gets worse, remove the suppository immediately.

Conclusion

You may as well decide not to buy anything and treat your yeast infection with homemade suppositories made from aloe vera plant straight from your window sill, or use good old coconut oil with a few drops of tea tree oil.

My personal favourite is aloe vera,it works every time, but many of my readers swear by coconut oil while others stick with conventional antifungal medication with great results. You need to try different things to find out what works best for you and get rid of vaginal yeast infections for good.

Hi Leona, there are no vaginal suppositories that can be used during your period, but you could choose oral treatment instead, Fluconazole provides a fast relief. You can also try to use probiotic tampons during your period to help reestablish healthy levels of friendly bacteria and boost your defenses against Candida.
